Nine Things to Check While Choosing A Cloud Service Provider

  As more and more IT systems are outsourced, zeroing in the best cloud providers is critical to long-term success. The market is already vast, with different brands offering large numbers of services. Apart from the big providers like Microsoft, Amazon, and Google, there are also smaller niche players who provide bespoke services. With too many choices to opt from, you must put down the selection and procurement process appropriate as per the needs. The Right Time to Select a Cloud Service Provider It is significant to understand the requirements of a business before choosing a cloud service provider. Clarifying the specific needs and minimum expectations in advance while assessing providers ensures that they are compared against the requirement checklist and not against their competitors. It is a faster way to narrow down the list of providers.  With more clarity on the requirements such as technical, service, security, data governance and service management, you will be b...

Machine Learning Goes Quantum: A Glance at an Exciting Paradigm Shift

  Quantum computing is a buzz-word that’s been thrown around quite a bit. Unfortunately, despite its virality in pop culture and quasi-scientific Internet communities, its capabilities are still quite limited. As a very new field, quantum computing presents a complete paradigm shift to the traditional model of classical computing. Classical bits — which can be 0 or 1 — are replaced in quantum computing with  qubits , which instead holds the value of a probability. Relying on the quirks of ph y sics at a very, very small level, a qubit is forced into a state of 0 or 1 with a certain probability each time it is measured. For instance, if a qubit is in a state of  0.85:0.15 , we would expect it to measure zero about 85% of the time, and one 15% of the time. Although quantum computing still has a long way to go,  machine learning is an especially promising potential avenue.  To get a simple grasp of the computing power quantum computing could offer, consider this: A...

Invisible Solar Panels: How Tomorrow’s Windows Will Generate Electricity

The solar cell created by the team is transparent, allowing its use in a wide range of applications. Credit: Joondong Kim from Incheon National University   A new study led by scientists from Incheon National University in Korea shows how to make a fully transparent solar cell. In a new study in Journal of Power Sources, an international team of researchers, led by Prof. Joondong Kim from Korea, demonstrate the first transparent solar cell. Their innovative technique rests on a specific part of the solar cell: the heterojunction, made up of thin films of materials responsible for absorbing light. By combining the unique properties of titanium dioxide and nickel oxide semiconductors, the researchers were able to generate an efficient, transparent solar cell. Five years after the Paris climate agreement, all eyes are on the world’s progress on the road to a carbon-free future. A crucial part of this goal involves the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources, such as s...
